Gold American Eagle Coin FAQ

What should I know before buying Gold Eagles?

When buying Gold Eagles, it is first and foremost essential to know the condition and the year of issue. If the coins have, for some reason, been circulated, it is also important to have them authenticated by a professional grading service. In addition to these specifications, it is useful to know some of the history that makes Gold Eagles worth buying. The 1 oz Gold American Eagle was released in 1986 but was a direct descendant of the $10 Gold coin authorized by the Coinage Act of 1792. The term “eagle” was used to describe a $10 coin. Therefore, the tradition of American Half Eagles and Double Eagles was born. The design on the new Gold Eagles you can buy today is inspired by the artwork used on the 1907 U.S. Gold coin.

Who makes Golden Eagle coins?

The United States Mint is the sole producer of authentic Golden Eagle coins backed by the American government. American Eagle 1 oz Gold coins are struck exclusively at the West Point facility in New York. The mintmark on all uncirculated and proof quality Golden Eagles is “W.” The U.S. Mint has produced Eagle coins for many years, so older series, such as the Liberty Eagle or the Indian Gold Eagle, were produced elsewhere. While you may find the eagle motif used on bullion bars or reproduction coins made by private mints, only the U.S. Mint produces real Eagle coins made from .9167 fine Gold.
